We received this oxalis nearly two decades ago and have not been able to track down a name for this wonderful cultivar, so we have christened it as Oxalis 'Silverado'. The 1' wide dome-shaped clump emerges in spring with four-leaf clover leaves of olive, highlighted by a bright central silver pattern. The clumps are adorned with white flowers held just above the foliage in late summer and early fall. This is another of the non-weedy, slow growing members of the genus, which make great garden specimens.
